Location wear with no blind spots in all directions.
Location shooting in winter is really tough. It is not unusual to spend more than half a day outdoors during a shoot, when even the cold during commuting can make you feel faint. It is even harder when you are shooting outdoors where you cannot easily get warm. How can you comfortably survive the cold? Considering the impact of cold on performance, it is one of the most important tasks for editors to take measures to protect themselves from the cold.
So, what should we wear? HOUYHNHNM's and Fresh Service have come up with these "UTILITY SHOOTING COAT" and "SHOOTING CARGO PANTS". These pants can be worn as a set-up with the so-called "Roke-jan," or "location jacket.
UTILITY SHOOTING COAT ¥57,200 each
Size range: S, M, L
First of all, let's talk about the ROKEJUN, which was made with outdoor location shooting in mind. The outer fabric is a twill material using rain- and dirt-resistant CORDURA® yarn. It has excellent abrasion resistance, is resistant to pilling, and is stretchable. In addition, it is machine washable, making it an excellent choice for use. It is also highly rated for its ability to remove the smell of campfire smoke at home!
In order to faithfully reproduce the details of military wear, the pocket fabric is in a khaki color scheme with different tones.
The pockets, which were well received in the previous version, are now location-specific. It can hold all the essentials for outdoor photography, such as change, a mobile battery, food, a 500 ml bottle, a notepad, and a headlamp.
Other highlights include. The hooded neck is designed high to cover the neck, and the cuffs are fitted close to the arms to keep out drafts, while the front pocket can easily fit an A4-size binder and doubles as a hand warmer. The body is filled with padding, so you will be protected from the cold if you wear this.
SHOOTING CARGO PANTS ¥30,800 each
Size range: S, M, L
"Wearing pants in layers is uncomfortable because they're so stiff..."
I understand , that feeling. These pants use TEIJIN's new material "Octa®" for the lining, which feels great against the skin and provides excellent heat retention. . In addition, they have a variety of functions such as water absorption, quick-drying, lightweight, heat shielding, and heat insulation.
In addition, the detailing is as good as the location jean. The waist is equipped with an adjuster belt, and the hem has a drawcord to prevent mud from sticking to it. The side pockets are placed higher than normal military pants, making it easier to get small items in and out. The embroidered "↑ mark" indicates the specifications and also serves as an accent.
The design, functionality, and details of this collaboration are all in full view. Let's take a look at a real day in the life of a certain film crew wearing the "UTILITY SHOOTING COAT" and the "SHOOTING CARGO PANTS".
